Cook the pigeon pea. Grind coconut, onion, ginger, garlic, green chillies, turmeric, asafoetida and salt together and keep it aside. Take a spoon of oil in a pan and season mustard and curry leaves. Now add the ground paste and fry for few min till the raw smell leaves. Once done add the cooked pea along with lemon extract and saute well. Garnish with finely chopped coriander leaves. Pigeon pea sundal is ready to eat :)

Admiring your beautiful Click of the pigeon Peas. They must be so happy you have made them look so glamorous. Never made sundal before. Sounds yummy and so healthy. Also ur disaster halwa looks kinda cute too..What kind is it.

nithya, you can make lovely rasam with this thuvarai, just substitute them for our normal thuvaram paruppu in the ususal paruppu rasam, but no garlic since it has a distint flavour. u can also make rasam with mochai paruppu, try , ur family will get addicted to it

Hey Nithya, how've you been, long time huh?? The sundal looks delish...do you get these in the USA? I have never seen them here. Back home we used to get plenty of these in Hyderabad, mom used to boil them with a little salt and done. It used to be our evening snack, all of us used to sit in the garden with a big bowl of boiled peas(with the pod). So peel and gobble it up! See don't blame me for this long comment, you have made me nostalgic!
